June 22 is the birth anniversary of Indian cinema legend Amrish Puri. Hollywood veteran Harrison Ford took a moment to remember his late co-star from the iconic film, `Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom`. Ford, who is set to reprise his role as Indiana Jones in the upcoming `Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny`, fondly recalled Puri as a sophisticated and charming individual, in contrast to his menacing character, Mola Ram, in the 1984 adventure film directed by Steven Spielberg.
Reflecting on their collaboration, Ford expressed admiration for Puri and the enjoyable time they had working together. Despite Puri`s reputation as one of Hindi cinema`s revered villains, the Hollywood star emphasized the stark difference between the actor and the character he portrayed on-screen.
